Diversity and Inclusion

While many leaders and organizations have an understanding of diversity, few have an understanding of how to deal with the dynamics diversity creates. Shanda McKinney will facilitate a discussion to further explore the dynamics of diversity and inclusion. The group will consider how diversity is the “difference” among individuals that brings about a natural tension and how inclusion is how we deal with that tension that is vital to our success as individuals and our organizations.  

Meet Our Speaker:
